I’ve been craving peach cobbler for weeks and weeks and finally scored enough peaches at a good price to make cobbler. The only problem was that I didn’t want to turn on the oven. What to do? Make slow cooker peach cobbler! I had to adjust a few things from the usual peach cobbler recipe I use, but this slow cooker peach cobbler came out lovely. I am not embarrassed to say that me and only me ate 3/4ths of the crockpot-full delicacy. Lord help me.
Slow cooker Peach Cobbler
half stick butter or margarine
4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced about 1/2 inch
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup all purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
pinch of nutmeg
1 cup milk
1 cup sugar
Turn your slow cooker to high. Some require you to turn it to low for 5 minutes and then turn to high, so look at your users manual. Place the butter in the insert and let melt(should take about half an hour).
While waiting for the butter to melt, peel and slice the peaches. Put 1/2 cup sugar, peaches and 1 tsp vanilla in a medium bowl. Toss to coat peaches.
In another bowl, place flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and 1 cup of sugar. Stir together.
Once you see the butter melted and bubbling, place the milk in the flour bowl and stir together.
Pour the milk and flour mixture into the slow cooker insert, slowly!
Then, pour the peaches on top of the batter, slowly!
Cover and let cook on high for 3 hours.
After 3 hours, sprinkle some sugar on top of cobbler and place a chopstick or the handle of a heat proof spatula under the lid. This will create the crusty top. Let cook for at least 30 more minutes.
Once done, top with cool whip or, my favorite, vanilla ice cream. Delicious!
